Done Is Better Than “Perfect”

My twins Dakota and Montana and I have been working on their “child of the week” collages for preschool.

They are having a ball.

For me, it’s a bit painful.

I have been practicing yoga for a lot of years and as such, have done a lot of letting go; however, I am a Virgo and at times vestiges of the old energy resurfaces.

That old perfectionistic over-the-top energy. Ahhhhhh!

I’m not even going to tell you how many photos I ordered for their collages. I take a lot of photos and a lot of them are good, and well, narrowing them down is a challenge for me.

Anyhow, I am using the experience to be gentle with myself. To see how far I have come after so many years of breathing on my mat and letting go, and just starting where I am, knowing that I am right where I need to be, and remembering that done is better than “perfect.”
